I'm Rad. Your Rad. Let's Hug.

"When selecting your photographer, remember that the professional photographer is more than someone that takes pictures, they capture memories, your memories, for a lifetime." -- Clayton Austin

<3>

Being a photographer, I believe there's more to it than merely pressing the shutter release. Its about the personal relationship you have with your clients. Getting to know them on a more personal level, that way, it's easier to capture THEM as they are, and not as the CAMERA perceives them. Otherwise, you're just another camera owner taking pictures of complete strangers.

So with that being said, I encourage ALL of my clients to add me as a personal friend on Facebook. Yeah, yeah, I know its JUST FACEBOOK, but you can learn a lot from people JUST on FACEBOOK. Its a great way for you to see what I'm about. And its a great way for me to stalk your likes and dislikes before a session! lol =]



btw. I know all of you are just dyinggg to know a little more about yours truly. Right?? haha Well, let's not delay any further! ...

TV Show? I hardly ever watch tv, but when I have the time America's Next Top Model is like a class in itself...I learn a lot about posing, props, and techniques. SVU rocks my socks, too!

Way to spend a Friday night? With my hubby's crazy work schedule, every night is spent as a family.

Some random fact about you very few people know.
- Back in the sand box ages, I literally fell ON a stick, which literally punctured my leg, which where I now have a nice little (dime size) scar.

If you could share one bit of advice for your teenage self what would it be? Don't endure 3 years of Spanish class. Instead, befriend a real-life tutor. (I did even better for myself, and married one...even got lucky enough to have a daughter who adores Dora the Explorer) =]
